Understanding Dupuytren’s Contracture
What is Dupuytren’s Contracture?
Dupuytren’s contracture is a condition characterized by the thickening and tightening of the connective tissue in the hand, resulting in the fingers being pulled towards the palm. Solitaire Medical Group offers Dupuytren’s Contracture Hylase Injection as a non-surgical treatment option.
The Injection Process
Preparing for the Injection
Your healthcare provider will guide you on specific preparations for the Hylase injection. This may include discussing any allergies or medications you’re currently taking.
The Injection Procedure
Hylase, an enzyme, is injected directly into the affected tissue. It works by breaking down the collagen fibers that cause the contraction, allowing the fingers to straighten.

After the injection, you’ll receive instructions on how to care for your hand. This may involve gentle exercises and avoiding certain activities.
